Term 4 - I need a Hero!

This term we are learning about Superheroes, those that you may know from stories but also real life heroes.

We have a few events happening this term. Firstly, we have World Book Day, where we will spend the week focussing on the story 'Supertato'. We will also have stories read to us from other teachers around the school. We will finish this week with a dress up day, dressing up as our favourite book characters. Then later in the term we will be looking at the celebration of Easter and finally we will finish the term with our super show 'Paxfactor' where we get to share all the wonderful talents the children have.
